Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Order IX rule 7 allows a defendant, on showing good cause at the applicable adjourned-hearing stage, to be heard as if present when the court earlier proceeded ex parte. Once an ex-parte decree is passed, Order IX rule 13 supplies the remedy based on non-service or sufficient cause, subject to its provisos. The two stages are distinct.
